We all have our annual rituals once the holidays come. Here are my top three: Decorating the tree while playing Johnny Mathis’ classic 1958 album Merry ChristmasSetting up our advent calendar with tiny toy “ornaments” and hanging one per day on the calendar’s felt treeChecking out Aldi’s abundance of festive seasonal products Okay, that last one is an exaggeration, but it is true that my favorite time to shop at Aldi is when they roll out the holiday goodies.

The result: your English site becomes the “truth” for all markets, while your local teams wonder why their traffic and conversions are vanishing. This article focuses primarily on search-grounded AI systems such as Google’s AI Overviews and Bing’s generative search, where the problem of geo-identification…
